Anyone else had a toyota recall ?

Question

I'm so annoyed that im forced to have work

done on a nine year old car , that I've had for

a year and a half lol, god knows what other

potential issues the work might cause.

Before I purchased the car I checked for recalls and there were none.

This is something I really Don't need as I've got too much on at the moment.

Sorry if anyone is offended by this, but I just

feel that some of these recalls are abit of a

scam because YES even though recalls are

done for free, we all know that work done on

used cars can cause stress and influence other

issues which 'equals' more work having to be done

which 'equals' more money for the car industry 😏😏

Are recalls required by law ?? I can't seem find a straight answer

Well they wouldn't issue a recall unless forced by the government or a law suit after injuries or deaths so i would get them done

When you checked, your car had no recalls. Be sure the notification in question is specific to your one car, not just the model. There is a way to check by VIN if the recall in question was fulfilled in the past already Lookie here: https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls

A dealer can't take a car in trade and resell it with open recalls, but that is the extent of the law requiring them. That being said, if you want to ever trade it in, they may not accept it if they themselves are not willing to go get the recall work done.

Quit your bitching and get your recall done jojo. Have them check the car over to find out what maintenance it needs while you're there.
